Exploring relationships between host genome and microbiome: new insights from genome-wide association studies.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
As our understanding of the human microbiome expands, impacts on health and disease continue to be revealed. Alterations in the microbiome can result in dysbiosis, which has now been linked to subsequent autoimmune and metabolic diseases, highlighting ...

Palaeomicrobiology: Application of Ancient DNA Sequencing to Better Understand Bacterial Genome Evolution and Adaptation

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Next generation sequencing (NGS) has unlocked access to the wide range of non-cultivable microorganisms, including those present in the ancient past. The study of microorganisms from ancient sources (palaeomicrobiology) using DNA sequencing now provides ...

Sequencing ancient DNA [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
The well-preserved mummy of an old man (Upper) is displayed in an exhibition in Denmark’s National Museum. The mummy was removed, as displayed, from an excavation in 1875 at Borum Eshoj, near Aarhus, Denmark. Carpenter and colleagues used hair samples from the mummy to isolate ancient DNA and validate the technique.
